Default Is Jim holding an iPhone??

snagged this pic from an article about Jim and Mike leaving the co-CEO spot and as it is evident that Mike has a 9810 in his hand it looks like Jim is holding an iPhone. looks like an apple on the back of it but could be the BBM logo at a bad angel. here's the link to the original post and a separate shot of the pic.

Provided this is a "posed" picture, I seriously doubt he is.
500% zoom in photoshop let me think more of a "9000 camera lens" like chromed area.

BUT, the article and pic seems to be removed ...

That is very clearly a bold 9000, that's an old photo anyway, long before the iphone 4. Mike is holding a 8300 curve.

While they clearly have BB's - I recall a picture of Google's CEO a while back holding a BB.

Due to the age of the picture it is likely the 9000. Also the backing/camera area appear to be the 9000 as well.

It's hard to tell for sure because there's a big red circle obscuring the phone...

Even if I was not sure I would say no. It'd be like the CEO of Coca Cola taking a publicity photo and holding a can of Pepsi. Those kinds of things simply do not happen.
